Daylilies in Wellesley Hills (Posterized Photo)

This image began with a photo that I took today in Wellesley Hills, MA. I had an appointment to keep, but I saw some beautiful day lilies outside the building, so I took a quick photo or two with my iPhone camera. The appointment couldn't have gone better; in fact, it was perfect. However, my photo was not! Tonight, when I got the image into my computer, I could see that the focus was soft, so I decided to open the image in Painter and posterize it. I liked the result, so I then used iPhoto to crop it to get this composition. I also used Painter to create a digital woodcut, which I will publish here tomorrow.
